async_pf_execute() passes tsk == current to gup(), this is doesn't
hurt but unnecessary and misleading. "tsk" is only used to account
the number of faults and current is the random workqueue thread.

Thanks, added a Suggested-by for Andrea and applied together with 1/2 to kvm/queue.

(Actually, I'm back from a longish vacation and I have a pretty large queue, so I haven't even compile tested these for now. Once I get round to at least smoke-test them, I'll really push to kvm/queue).
